Maybe even a pound of gold too!
When they scrap this thing it will go a computer recycle plant. They have equipment that pulverizes computers and extracts all the precious metals. I think they save the plastics too.
air is roughly 1.0
water is about 1.3
diamonds are 2.4 why do you say they have the same ior? just curious, maybe your diamond test really does work, but i doubt it.
I hope you cleared it with the ISP d00d!

is a single pixel? why is that cool? the dot's on my 'i's are a single pixel right now. They should have said something like "The dot on this 'i' here is 17 pixels!" that would indicate a higher resolution, or at least a bigger font.
I imagine anyone working in the graphics realm of things would kill for one of these. 200dpi is getting pretty close to laser printer quality. it's kind of ironic that nearly everthing the Art Department prints out is only 800x600, and sometimes they even scale it up from that to get something like 60dpi on their printouts. All those lost dots per inch. *sniff* makes me sad.
Do you think your unit is not as good as the later generations? I have tried to make my MpTrip skip.. I've smacked it repeatedly to the point of watching the CD inside come to a stop, yet it has never skipped. Does your Unit have a jack for a remote control? They seem to have changed the design a bit and mine does not have one.
With the 500 second memo function, i believe the MpTrip encodes MP3's as well. It uses the same memory for skip protection as for the memo. considering how CRAPPY the memo sounds-- I find it easy to believe it encodes at 12.8kbps
battery life is supposedly around 6 hours this is with good alkaline batteries though.
I have seen a "stick" thing that you pour 2 or three AA batteries into and then connect to the power input. you could probably make one but it would be kinda kludgy
Did AMD engineers really think this would stop fraud? This looks simpler than SMP with celerons. It's almost like the engineers are secretly catering to the hackers with all these "riddles" and backdoors to solve. kewl!
Have we been under a false impression that Athlons need special memory? Many companies advertise athlon compatible memory; if this is a false issue I'm sure it's hurt AMD's sales.
>>Also, internet bandwidth is increasing very rapidly. There will be plenty of bandwidth to go around. If you haven't noticed; regardless of how much bandwidth we have or will have-- people will find ways to soak it up. someday we will have your dvd collection available on the fly anywhere in the world. how convienient!
Could a company setup an "application storage facility"? Slap in your Office CD and punch in your serial # and you can access YOUR legally owned software from anywhere in the world. Of course you have to own the machine as well, but that's a given, right?;-) Obviously this wouldn't fly due to copy protection-- you could save it to another machine that isn't your, or share your login with your friends/world. Same risks involved with my.mp3.com. I'm surprised no one trades my.mp3.com accounts.... besides the fact that it's lame, and there is Napter:P
My.mp3.com was LAME waste of scarce internet bandwidth. As if the internet wasn't bogged to hell with warez and porn; do we need people pointlessly downloading music they already have???

Quietly give up.
and it is still a really fun game those commercials are only about 5 seconds
so an uncomfortable seat makes you more productive?
wtf?
Your one of the bastards that designed school desks!

me too
except damn near everything.
A haunted house designer wanted the effect of whispering in peoples ears to freak them out. This would probably work perfectly.

Funny how the CPU manufacturers are the only
obvious companies to have road maps of their
products up to 2 years in advance.
T he Benchmark Results of the Radeon compare well with a Geforce2.
The Rage Pro Fury just sucks; not even beating a TNT2. Aple is Dum.
Nono Mac OS "ucks"
tee hee heee
"Probably have been fewer funerals."
Amazingly no one was killed (except the burglars).

50*12.8K=640K That's all *I* need.

Umm. It is not open to the public; you need an account and can only access what you own.
